Default WANTED - Large Vivarium, Norfolk/Suffolk Area

Hi

We are after a large vivarium for our 4 year old Iguana. Looking for something 5 to 6 foot tall, 4 to 5 foot wide and 2 or more feet deep.
We live in Norwich, Norfolk but would be willing to travel, possibly up to 100 miles for the right vivarium.

Let me know what you have and how much you are after?

Thanks

I've thought about it but i wouldn't know where to start. To be honest i'm pretty clueless when it comes to anything like that. Has anyone on here built their own? If so i'd be interested to hear any pointers?

its not too hard. essentially a big box with no front.

Most DIY stores will cut the wood to size for you, then all you need to do is fix together and seal it all up.

The glass runners can be bought from BnQ, then the glass bought to size.
